Last year, when I first discovered her channel, I thought she had a few good ideas. After a full year, I can confidently say that she keeps repeating the same 3 advice over and over again. Balance. That's all she has to offer. If one piece is baggy then wear a tight piece on top. Wow. Groundbreaking. It's not even a good practical advice. One would think you'd look like a clown if you wore skinny jeans with a tight fitting sweater.

I saw a video of her with a thumbnail of a video wit long pleated white skirt and clicked immediately since I was thinking of investing in one. Her advice? Don't style it with a long top. If she had tried to learn about fashion and style since I first discovered her, just a few online classes and one book maybe, I'd have respected her. I hate how she gets a huge following by being so lazy.

I’m sorry but you cannot tell me that the second outfit looks better than the first outfit? Apparently with the first outfit the jeans are too fitted for the style of cardigan and the accessories are too classic, making it look ‘try hard’ and ‘twee’

In my opinion the second outfit jeans are too light wash to wear with black, the ballet flats are horrible and the bag is just not practical compared with the bag in the first outfit, we can’t always style our outfits with a bag that looks better because sometimes we need a big bag that fits all our stuff in lol.

I do think her outfits are good sometimes but I think she misses the mark quite a lot

Why does she think she's some sort of style guru? :D
She receives a lot of nice stuff (freebies/promos) but she doesn't have the experience to be spouting forth about rules and "never wear". Nothing she says is original and she has tunnel vision about what is a good look. Her hatred of "clumpy" shoes makes, in my opinion, a lot of her outfits appear top heavy and unbalanced.
Recently, she seems to have decided that "juxtaposition" is a style. :rolleyes: I think she means contrast but the mis-use of the word is annoying.

When are these "influencers" going to realise that not everything needs to be trend led and not every trend will suit everyone. Those ballerina flat looks great if you are slender or tall but a shorter or larger framed person will not suit that style. She really grinds my gears, she has a real know it all/ pick me girl persona.

I think her style of content and way of editing lead most viewers to view through the whole thing because everyone loves a “before/after” comparison.
But her style “advice” is only suitable for thin blonde women like herself.

I also really hate the finger waving ☝☝☝
duck off.

I came on to see if anyone had watched her recent videos as she really is insufferable. Cannot stand her droney voice and the finger wagging. Her outfits on the whole also look sh1t and uninspiring! Are her followers bots?!

A lot of her You Tubes are now just ads for a particular brand. Of course, she's very "particular" and only ever works with brands she loves and trusts. Pull the other one, petal.
Loved the recent "Favourite New-In Denim For Autumn" featuring a brand she's never mentioned...River Island. Desperately trying to look convinced by some clowny jeans. She's removed the critical comments. :D So so precious! It was genuine, constructive criticism but she really can't take it. 🤷‍♀️

Her reel with the Abercrombie dresses is all awful, particularly the shapes black mini dress she shows first. Her style reminds me of my mum in the 80s.

She seems to be at the stage where she just wears things because they're sent to her. 🤷‍♀️ And she's definitely been contemptuous about such dresses and today's sequin mini dress.. :D
Her You Tube is a series of long adverts now.

Her content has dropped in quality. I have been following her for couple of years but now it is just adverts after adverts. She also started contradicting herself in what she "preached" before. But what infuriated me the most is censoring comments and deleting the ones where she is not praised. SHE released new video today and someone wrote a comment "This is not chic at all". 10 minutes later, comment is gone. Go and try for yourself lol. She removes all negative comments even when it's a polite comment and constructive one. Also for a person who studied English, her vocabulary is really poor. The amount of word "beautiful" in her videos is a joke. I am losing interest in her new content, prefer old stuff.

Her befores are better than afters. I mean take this video for instance:




She didn't make the outfit more interesting, it just looks 2023. Adding sunglasses and a belt just to accessorize sounds so lame. The plain outfit is sexier.

She didn't tweak that outfit. She ended up wearing completely different clothes!
Here's a tip: If you want to wear tailored trousers and a smart coat don't start off in straight leg jeans and a slouchy jumper. :D

She has a few words and phrases - structure, dimension, juxtaposition, aesthetic etc. - and applies them to a particular outfit without really knowing what they mean. She'll also contradict herself by wearing something she would NEVER wear. Just happens to fit in with the latest ad. :rolleyes:
